Knowledge Discovery Metamodel (KDM)
is the first specification developed by the
Task Force. KDM is a publicly
available specification from the OMG. KDM is a common
intermediate representation for existing software systems
and their operating environments, that defines common
metadata required for deep semantic integration of the
Application Lifecycle Management tools.
Hatha Systems maintains an one Portal for KDM
(http://www.kdmanalytics.com/kdm).
